The fernando Officials.

On the 18th inst. a number of officials
and prominent citizens of fernando
County went to- Tallahassee, and one
who was with them on the train reported
to us the visit, and stated the object was
another demonstration for BloNham.
Upon this hint we spake,' although we
wondered much. We are now glad to
learn that we We're mistaken. and give
place to the following communication,
with many thanks to our esteemed cor
respondents, who enable us to correct an
error:
BROWNSVILLE. FLA, May IL.
Editor Of the Pdldtkd NeIcs.
The party of county officials who left
here for Tallahassee on the 18th instant
We're not shouters for Bloxham, but
simply investigators as to their own
rights. seeking only what justice may
demand. and willing to abide the de
cision of the Executive.
Yours truly, IXION.

BROOKSVULE, FLA, Nav -.
Editor of the Pttlortka Ners.
Somebody must have deceived you.
for the visit of the fernando County
officers to Tallahassee was solely in their
own interests and had no reference
whatever to the Senatorial contest.
Senator Mann is seeking to have the
present county officials rtplaced by his
own personal adherents. and To prevent
this. if possible, was the object of the
'-office-holders' visit to Tallahassee
Those who went up We're fairly elected;
but Senator Mann is trying to make il
appear otherwise.

Change in Political Sentiment.
Philadelphia Times

Nine-tentns of the bankers and finan-
cial men, with nearly an equal proper
ton of the manufacturers and business
men Of this city. voted for Blaine in
1884. To-day majority of them would
vote for Cleveland against Blaine. They
do not profess to have become Demo
Gratis. On the contrary, they have no
idea of becoming partisan Democrats,
but the conservative, honest business
policy Of Cleveland commands their con-
hdence and respect, and they have
ceased to be Republican partisans.

Business called me away from the nietrop-

into the Sleeping car smoking room. Con-
versation followed. and l soon learned that
he was -, the big advertiser. His hobby is
advertising, for he has made fortune out
of it. He said;
"You want TO know some of the secrets of
the art Of advertising? Well, IN tell you the
first requisite to success. Be sure that you've
a good thing to sell. Don't be afraid to claim
sll the virtues for your wares, but be sure
that they possess them first. For if you don't
the public will soon find it out, AMI then, of
course, your sales will STOP
"Newspsper advertising is the hest in the
long run, of course though I've found an
lcasional medium outside the newspapers that
brought good returns. But whatever medium
you chose make the 'ad' plain. That is, don't
hide the name of your goods or your firm
under an artistic design. For instance, If you
are advertising crackers for coaclmen's
Whips make the most prominent part of the
advertisements the word whip lashes' OF
something of the kind, and have it
printed in bold faced, plain type, without
any nonsense, SO plain that man can
read it across railroad car or further. Don't
cover up the word in an deliberately Designed
picture of whips. My success lies in the fact
that I've always stated what had to say
pfainly, boldly and directly.

Scotch perception, finding New York over
crowded, he struck out for the great and growing
west. In 1917 Pittsburg was as remote from this

that the lad sought his fortune. He didn't find
any promising amount Of luck at first. He got

H. even that.
There were only about seventy five pounds Of
Andrew Carnegie then inside Of the oily engine
room clothes, but they were seventy-five pounds
Of pluck, energy and ambition. As soon as he
had made himself familiar with the geography Of
the city the lad went to the Office OF the Atlantic
and Ohio Telegraph company and asked for
work as messenger. James Douglas Reid. one OF
the Oldest tele2raphers In this country, was then
manager Of the ONCE. He. too, was Scotch. and
the youngsters broad Scottish accent was some
thing Of q recommendation, in his Judgment.
